pub get failed : A package may not list itself as a dependency

16.4k views Asked by At

I'm having this problem in pubspec.yaml :

here the pubspec.yaml :

 dependencies:
  flutter:
    sdk: flutter
  cupertino_icons: ^1.0.2
  pluto_grid: ^2.9.3

and here is the Error :

[pluto_grid] flutter pub get
Running "flutter pub get" in pluto_grid...                      
Error on line 37, column 3 of pubspec.yaml: A package may not list itself as a dependency.
   ╷
37 │   pluto_grid: ^2.9.3
   │   ^^^^^^^^^^
   ╵
pub get failed (65;    ╵)
exit code 65

need to know what's wrong, used the same in other project and worked perfectly.

I found why i'm getting this Error, this happens because the project name is the same as the library name. so if you have the same Error as this just try to change the project name.

That's not necessary to declare your own project as a dependency in the project's pubspec.yaml

the project package name should not be the same name of added library's name in pubspec.yaml

Normally this happen when your project name same as package name. So rename your project name.

had the same issue, changing the filename resolved it. The problem was that the filename and dependency name was the same.

Change your project name and try again.
